Q
ECUPD cracks down on theft
Students warned
not to purchase
stolen decals
Nancy Kuck
ASSISTANT NEWS EDITOR
The ECU Police
Department (ECUPD) is
currently cracking down
on the problem of
on-campus theft since
three ECU students were
recently charged for the
possession of stolen park-
ing decal hangtags.
Students, Houtan
Kargarand Nathan Hanks,
were charged early Sept.
6 for the possession of
stolen property.
Kargar was arrested
after a stolen hangtag was
discovered in his vehicle
by an officer. Within an
hour of Kargar's arrest,
Hanks was taken into cus-
tody after a warrant was
obtained.
Channing Cobb, also a
student, was arrested late
Aug. 31 for the possession
of stolen property after
a student patrol officer
observed a stolen hang-
tag and reported it to the
ECUPD.
All three students were
not involved with the lar-
ceny of the decals but
were criminally charged
and will be sent to both
the Dean of Students and
North Carolina District
Court.
According to Thomas
Younce, ECU assistant
chief of police, the most
common crime on
campus is theft. Since
Aug. 18, there have been
14 parking decals reported
stolen.
"We have taken more
aggressive standards for
this type of theft Younce
said.
ECUPD patrols all
campus parking lots.
When decals are issued.
Parking and Traffic Ser-
vices records all valid
driver information and
the serial number of each
decal.
. When a decal is
reported stolen, its serial
number is sent to the
ECUPD and is noted
during the patrol of the
campus lots.
"It appears that stu-
dents are purchasing
these decals from people
at a lower rate Younce
said. "The big thing we
are trying to emphasize
is that if you are in pos-
session of these decals
and you did not buy it
from Parking and Traffic
Services, you are in a lot
of trouble
The jurisdiction of
the ECUPD includes all
campus areas and the
streets that surround the
campus, such as 10th and
5th streets.
According to Younce,
all decal thefts that have
been reported stolen to
the ECUPD have occurred
on campus. Generally,
the decals were taken
from vehicles that were
unlocked. In certain
instances, a vehicle Is
broken into and damage
is incurred.
"I would hope that stu-
dents don't think it is a
prank when they use these
decals they buy off the
streets because they are
in possession of stolen
property and if caught,
Itheyj will receive a crim-
inal charge on their per-
manent record Younce
said.
A fourth student has
been arrested for the
same offense. Information
regarding this arrest was
not available at this time.
ECU Assistant Chief of Police Tom
Younce says the ECUPD must take a
more aggressive role in enforcing theft

Army R0TC awards ceremony held
Several cadets recognized for
Advance Camp 2000
Trisha Archino
GUEST WRITER
Nancy Kuck
ASSISTANT NEWS EDITOR
Army ROTC conducted an awards ceremony
recognizing several cadets on Sept. 6. LTC George
M. Jenkins, ECU Battalion Commander, presented
cadets with awards for their completion of various
training exercises along
with recognizing several
other students as scholar-
ship recipients.
Cadets Trisha Archino,
Robert Bowling, Nikki
Davis, Frank Maxwell,
Heather Reilly, Roderick
Stevenson, David Thomp-
son, Christopher Washack
and Henry Schnedler were
recognized for their com-
pletion of Advance Camp
2000.
The five-week training
at Fort Lewis, Washington
emphasized on learning
and executing various tasks
required of an Army Officer.
Upon graduation from ECU,
these cadets will receive a
commission in the U. S. Army as second lieutenants.
Cadet Schnedler was awarded the Platoon Leader-
ship Award and the RecondoConfidence-Training
Award during his training session. To earn the Recondo
Badge, recipients must demonstrate outstanding
physical fitness under regulations outlined by the
Army Physical Fitness Test along with demonstrating
confidence and proficiency in various training obstacles
and exercises in the confidence course. The cadet must
also complete the Combat Water Survival Training
Test.
Cadets Gabriel Dicola and Jonathan Hooker were
recognized for the completion of Army Airborne
School. The three weeks of intense training resulted
in the cadets completing four daytime jumps and one
nighttime jump. Cadets Michael Crystal and Natalie
Harrison were recognized for their attendance and
completion at the Army ROTC Basic Camp over the
summer. Basic Camp challenges students to learn many
tasks relevant in today's Army.
Harrison received the Gauntlet Award, an honor
award given to few students at Basic Camp. This award
recognized above average performances at camp and
completions of all tasks on the initial try.
Scholarship recipients for William Dudley, Alisha
Hill, Lisa Stout, Bryan Vaden, Mary Vogel, Jonathan E.
Darden and Harrison were announced. These cadets
will receive scholarships valued between $20,000
and $52,000. Cadets were nominated based on their
meritorious record in academic studies, extracurricular
participation, athletic
activities and demon-
stration of exceptional
leadership potential as
well as their desire to
serve as an officer in
the U. S. Army.
The final award
presented went to
Cadet Don Glasser.
Glasser received a $
1,(XX) check from the
Civilian Marksman-
ship Program. This
scholarship is pre-
sented to deserving
JROTC and ROTC stu-
dents who excels aca-
demically, and who

Over the last nine months,
1 have spent quite a bit of time
thinking of how to involve EVERY
student at ECU in SGA.
Most of you probably think I
sound like some fresh, young
and innovative freak and in
part, you are correct. However, 1
finally came up with an
idea that 1 believe to be
the most inclusive and
innovative of all.
My idea is simple: to
have ONE organization
that represents each of
the 250 plus campus
organizations at ECU.
At present, these
organizations work
autonomously from
SGA, the Student Union
and every other group
at ECU.
Being altruistic, I
taking credit for forming this
organization. SGA, as a whole,
is helping start-up and maintain
the group.
No longer. On Monday, Sept.
18 at 4 p.m. in Hendrix Theater,
campus organization leaders or
their representatives will be meet-
ing to discuss this new group-the
Campus Organization Council
(COC). Modeled after the SGA
Legislature, this group will help
carry concerns and potentially
legislative policy to SGA.
I want to hear the concerns of
students, via their organizations.
Every student organization was
sent a personalized letter from
me, so NO ONE can say they were
not invited.
Please understand
that this group is
unprecedented at ECU
and can become one
of the most inclusive
groups in the state.
Other schools will catch
on.
This could be big.
Unfortunately, though,
the success of the group
MlCtiael C. AIM can only be determined
SGA chief of STAFF by the participation of
campus organizations.
So, PLEASE come to the meet-
ing. Jim Sturm, the entire SGA
Executive Council and Chan-
cellor Richard Eakin will be in
attendance. Help me (but more
importantly, ECU and the SGA)
make the COC a success.
Do not forget to vote on Sept.
27 in the fall legislative elections.
Thanks to all of you who have
registered to run. I wish you the
best of luck.

COASTAL WEATHER
UPDATE
Hurricane Florence is a tropical storm again. The National
Hurricane Center (NHC) downgraded the system at approxi-
mately 5 p.m. (EDT).
Florence continues to idle off the southeast coast of the
United States, showing very little movement.
Although it is not directly affecting the coast, high surf
associated with the storm is blamed for two drownings in North
Carolina.
At 5 p.m. (EDT), Florence was centered about 345 miles
soutjhriputheait of Cape Hatteras, N.C. Maximum sustained
winds were measured at 70 mph. The storm remained nearly
stationary throughout the afternoon Wednesday, but the NHC
said it could gradually drift towards the east over the next 24
hours.
The NHC cautioned interests in Bermuda that once Florence
begins to move away from land, it could regain strength.
Though far from land, Florence claims two victims. On Tues-
day, a man and a woman drowned at Kure Beach, N.C. and
seven others were rescued from strong rip currents generated
by the hurricane. Another man was missing after falling out of
a kayak at Carolina Beach.
"Apparently, these waves are a result of Florence although
it is a rather small hurricane said Richard Pasch, a hurricane
specialist with the National Hurricane Center in Miami.
Two North Carolina beaches were closed Tuesday because
of the rip currents. Florence is the sixth named storm of the
Atlantic season.

Williamston woman delivers
eastern N.Cs first sextuplets
(The Daily Reflector)-A Wil-
liamston woman gave birth to
three boys and three girls Monday
evening, the first set of sextuplets
ever in eastern North Carolina.
One boy was stillborn- The five
other babies were in critical condi-
tion late Monday, according to a
hospital spokeswoman.
Michelle Taylor, 29, gave birth
beginning at 8:48 p.m. Doctors
at Pitt County Memorial Hospital
used two delivery rooms, one to
deliver the babies and another to
treat the infants. A team of 40
medical professionals delivered the
babies in 4 minutes. The birth was a
first for the hospital and the first in
eastern North Carolina, according
to the hospital.
Taylor, a cost accountant, and
her husband, Mike, an electrician,
also have a son, Chase, 2. The
Taylor babies ranged in weight from
1 pound, 13 ounces to 2 pounds,
5 ounces.
Dr. John Wimmer, neonatolo-
gist with the Brody School of Medi-
cine, said that they were responding
well to treatment.
"We have every reason to be
hopeful for a positive outcome he
said in a written statement.
Taylor was in her 28th week
of pregnancy, it was not known
whether she had taken fertility
drugs. She had been in the hospital
for more than a month before the
delivery, according to the hospital.
The babies were delivered by
Dr. Hale Stephenson of Greenville
Obstetrics and Gynecology. He was
assisted by Drs. Thomas Kramer,
Edward Newton and Susan Bane.
New math method
adds up for professor
BETHLEHEM, I'a. (AP)-A Lehigh
University professor found a new
way to solve an old problem. A
mathematical problem, that is.
Asha Jitendra, associate pro-
fessor of human services at the
University, has developed a new
method to teach math to children
with learning disabilities.
"1, myself, have a child with a
learning disability, that's why I got
in the field she said.
Rather than focus on computa-
tion, the traditional method of
teaching math, Jitendra helps chil-
dren learn math by solving word
problems. The method stresses
higher order skills like reasoning
and finding relationships.
It all started when Jitendra
observed students in the classrooms
learning word problems through

two methods-general, where the
teacher reads the problem and asks
the students what calculation they
must use to solve it, and specific,
where the teacher explains each
step taken to solve the problem.
Children using the specific
method did better than those using
the general method, she said.
"My concern was that not
everybody in the specific strategy
did well, some just didn't under-
stand it she said.
Jitendra then ran across a
method used with adults by a
researcher at San Diego State Uni-
versity in California and realized it
could be applied to children.
Jitendra has conducted five
studies since 1994, using groups of
students from five area elementary
and middle schools.
Ball State student hospitalized
after being beaten at frat house
MUNCIE, Ind.(U-WIRE)-A Ball State University student was hospital-
ized in serious condition with severe head injuries Sunday, a day after he
was beaten outside a fraternity house.
Police suspect that Paul J. PJ Henderson, 23, was beaten with a golf
club or a large piece of wood outside the Lambda Chi Alpha fraternity
house early Saturday as a party was in progress inside the home
He was taken to Ball Memorial Hospital, where he was listed in serious
condition in the intensive care unit Sunday morning.
Authorities said Henderson was paralyzed on the left side of his
body when he was taken to the emergency room with severe head
injuries.
Police said they had two suspects in the beating.
Henderson, a senior from Elkhart, was beaten shortly after 2 a.m
Saturday outside the Lambda Chi Alpha frat house as a large party was in
progress with several off-duty police officers working security.
Police received two calls, one of a fight in progress and another of
a battery with injury. When on-duty officers arrived at the scene, they
found Henderson behind the house.
Skidmore student sentenced
three years to life for selling cocaine
Skidmore College (U-WIRE)-Even on the posh upstate New York
campus of Skidmore College a student may seem a bit suspicious tooling
around in a Lexus LS400. Even more suspicious when he's delivering
$2,150 in cocaine to undercover police officers.
Saratoga County Judge Jerry J. Scarano sentenced Gardner G.
Cummings to three years to life Monday, Sept. 11th, after he pled
guilty in June to a criminal sale of a controlled substance in the
second degree, a felony charge. A police investigation discovered that
Cummings had sold large quantities of cocaine to Skidmore students
over a several month period, said Saratoga County District Attorney
James Murphy.Through two anonymous informants, undercover New
York State Police propositioned Cummings, an undeclared junior at the
private college, and arrested him after he made two separate cocaine sales.
On April 2, Cummings delivered $750 in cocaine, and on April 19th,
Cummings sold $1,400 in cocaine to the undercover officers.
"Drug dealing apparently was an attractive life style for this young
man, but now he will be held accountable said District Attorney
James Murphy.

SGA has taken the first
step in the involvement
process. Now it's time
for students and orga-
nizations alike to follow
through and contribute.
OUR VIEW
The Student Government Association (SCA) is proposing that each
organization come together as one in a singular organization entitled Campus
Organization Council (COC) encompassing all of the 250 campus organizations.
Participation is crucial to making this new system work.
Michael Aho, SGA chief of staff, has sent letters to each organization,
personally inviting them to this meeting.
We at TEC think that this is a great idea. SCA is striving to meet all of the
concerns of all students. As we have attempted to include students more into
our biweekly publication, SGA is doing the same thing through the voice of
student leaders as well as student organizations.
COC would be a wonderful way to have open-communication between
the student body, the government that represents them and the institution
that they attend.
In order to create a more unified daily existence at ECU, we need to start
taking the incitive to change, one group at a time. Realistically, students who
care participate in campus organizations. Thus, those people will take an active
role in making the system a success.
Undoubtedly, as much as you love to attend ECU, there are things about
this establishment that you don't find fair, warranted or necessary, and this is
the perfect venue to make those concerns public.
SGA wants this idea to come to life, so does TEC, and so should you.
Campus organization leaders or their representatives will be meeting to
discuss this new group-the COC at 4 p.m. Monday, Sept. 18 in Hendrix
Theatre. If you are a part of an organization, be sure to pass on the idea of the
proposal. We would like to see a representative from all of the 250 campus
organizations in attendance for this discussion.
We appreciate the hard work that the SGA is putting forth to promote
everything from equality to unity on this campus. They have taken the first
step in the involvement process. Now it's time for students and organizations
alike to follow through and contribute.
SepAe KUuudund IN MY OPINION
Knight possesses basketball history with university
It seems to me that Indiana
University President Myles Brand
has gone a little too far this time by
dismissing Head basketball Coach
Bobby Knight. For those of you
not familiar with Bobby Knight,
he has been a part of Indiana bas-
ketball history since 1971. He has
given Indiana numerous National
Championship titles, as well as
many Big 10 titles.
Knight led the U.S. Olympic
team to the gold medal in 1984 and
has been voted National Coach of
the year four times. But it seems
that in the past, Coach Knight
has been known for his colorful
behavior, which includes his world
famous temper tantrums.
This past spring, Indiana Uni-
versity issued a zero-tolerance
policy about his volatile behavior,
in which he promised to follow. It
was last Thursday when IU student
Kent Harvey was picking up football
tickets, after passing the Coach that
night he greeted him by saying
'Hey, what's up Knight? At that
point, Knight grabbed him on the
arm and gave him a quick lecture
about common courtesy and eti-
quette, in which he said, 'Son, my
name is not Knight to you. It's
Coach Knight or it's Mr. Knight. I
don't call people by their last name,
and neither should you
I hardly call this a situation,
much less a crime that is deemed
serious enough to dismiss one of
most winning coaches in basketball
history. After almost three decades
of excellent coaching, one of the
highest player graduation rates
in the country (98 percent) and
for keeping the team without any
NCAA violations, is this how IU
should reward Bobby Knight? IU
students are mad.
It took police in riot gear to
disperse the crowd of nearly 2,000
students who had assembled on
campus to protest 'the firing of
Coach Knight. It seems that once
again, a university president is so
concerned about his own "legacy"
that he took it upon himself to
single handedly dismiss the biggest
institution at Indiana. Could you
imagine the riot that would be
created if Carolina had ever gotten
rid of Dean Smith?
What are we to do for our
coaches and administrators if the
first time somebody throws their
liberal activism at the university,
they start getting rid of their most
prized facets?
Should Coach Steve Logan
worry about lecturing his players
against the evils of dnig use if it isn't
politically correct or if it offends
somebody? Should he be afraid to
correct somebody if they call him
by his first name and start flashing
gang signs at him?
Hell no! Coaches have to be
tough in times like these. Discipline
yields results on the courts and the
classrooms, and I feel that Coach
Knight has an exemplary record
for both. It is time that universities
start standing up for their people,
instead of throwing them out like
yesterday's garbage.

IN MY OPINION
I don't want my MTV
T
Columbia College (TMS)-Listen
up, music fans! In case you haven't
heard the news, the Box Music
Network, described as "the world's
only interactive all-music cable
channel will soon be wiped out
of existence by Its music video rival
MTV.
For those of us who turned
from MTV to the Box to fulfill
our growing need to watch music
videos 247, the news that the
one channel that "exactly" serves
the needs and wants of its viewers
will soon be gone for good, leaves
many people 6 myself included 6
wondering why?
According to an article pub-
lished on Billboard's Web site late
last month, the Miami-based Box
Music Network will be downsized
and folded into the operations of
MIV2.
MTV2 was created several years
ago to play more videos after MTV
itself decided to turn its attention
to game shows and reality series
like "The Real World" and "Road
Rules. "Launched as the Jukebox
Network in March 1989, the Box
offers viewers a large variety of
music videos to chose from via a
900 number for $1.99 per video
giving them the power to program
their television. MTV Networks
purchased the Box in 1999.
Their "music television you
control" approach made the Box
a fan favorite among teens and
18-to-25 year-olds. It's that core
constituency advertising execu-
tives covet and in this case, the
group MTV and its parent company
Viacom wants to control.The Box
reaches 24 million homes (double
the number homes it reached in
1990) and showcases a large and
vast sampling of new music videos
each week.
Reportedly, MTV adds fewer
than 20 videos a week.And probably
the most important factor in this
"so-called" merger, is that the Box
caters to genres like punk, death
metal, hardcore rap and country,
which is something you would
likely never see on MTV.
And to no one's surprise, there
is no reported guarantee that once
the Box and MTV2 become one
network, you, the viewer, will be
able to have any say in what you
see.Iet's face Itif this was about
cutting cost and saving money.
why not shut down MTV2? The
network is mainly available on
satellite TV and reaches less than
half the households of the Box.
This seems to me to be the
smartest decision to make, but the
almighty powerhouse that is MTV
would rather have absolute control
over our choice in watching the
music videos we want when we
want to. And because of this, we
are faced with the strong possibil-
ity of being forced to watch the
music videos MTV wants us to see.
Not to mention, putting an end to
having to compete with any other
channel, leaving viewers with only
one choice to choose from.
How fair is that?l'm not anti-
MTV, but rather, I'm against the
idea of eliminating a viewer's choice
in want they want for no apparent
reason at all. Since both the Box
and MTV have developed a loyal
following since their inception
and provided a service to a large
number of people, why is there a
need to change anything at all?
To put it simply, it makes no
sense whatsoever. So to the people
at MTV I say, "if it's not broke,
don't fix it
JedaftvLtoMal IN MY OPINION
Security should increase due to Duke U. suicidal gunman scare
The Chronicle (Duke U.)-When
a gunman entered Duke University
President Nan Keohane's office
early Wednesday afternoon, the
clock was clearly ticking. As David
Patrick Malone held three hostages
at gunpoint and asked to see the
president, Keohane was in the
process of returning from an off-
campus meeting.
And, as she was returning, mem-
bers of the Duke University Police
Department were on their way to
the scene.
With Malone threatening to kill
himself at any moment, the scene
was-five minutes from becoming
a disaster. But officers from DUPD
arrived in time and were able to
stop Malone without the use of
excessive force and without gunfire
or injuries to anyone involved.
DUPD's quick thinking and
acting confirms its status as well-
trained and capable enforcer of the
law equal to any municipal police
force.
While DUPD and the actions of
its officers are to be commended.
one is still left with a nagging case of
"What if? Although the gunman
insisted he was intent only on kill-
ing himself, might it not have been
a different story if Keohane had
been in her office?
Malone carried a loaded revolver
with 32 additional bullets, more
than enough to wreak a savage
vengeance on a university that he
had a long-standing, unreasonable
complaint with.
The presence of a handgun, a
weapon used for the sole purpose
of killing, in a traditionally safe and
sacred place, whether it be a high
school, church or the administra-
tive office of a university, is an
unfortunate occurrence that the
American public has sadly become
accustomed to seeing. .
The fact that Keohane and the
other administrators and employees
who occupy the space in the Allen
Building have to wake up to the
memory of this incident and the
fear that it may happen again is
ridiculous. But it is the price we all
will continue to pay in a nation
that continues to tolerate a culture
of death and violence.
Admirably, Keohane's office is
open and allows a close proximity
to her, if not instant access to
the president herself. However, it
also could have put her in serious
danger. The Office of the President
should seriously consider adding
to its security measures by at least
posting at the door to the building's
second floor a receptionist who
would actively encounter every
visitor to the office.
Granted, such an individual
could not have stopped an armed
man from getting to his target, but
this measure could give the police
a few more seconds in getting to
the scene.
It is clear that Wednesday's
incident was isolated, but it remains
one that should make the university
think harder about its campus
security measures while being care-
ful not to make the president less
accessible.
LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Athletic ticket fiasco disappoints fans
Dear Editor,
Dowdy-Ficklen Stadium has
nearly a 50,000 seating capacity.
This means the stadium can easily
accommodate the 18,000 students
who attend F.CU plus Pirate Club
members, alumni and the general
public.
How does it work out that after
waiting four hours in line, I walked
away without a ticket?
I was told by the Athletic Ticket
Office, at 8 p.m. on game day, I
could purchase my ticket for $25.
Why should I and all the other
students who wanted tickets have
to pay for them when included in
our tuition is a required student
athletic fee?
As I understand, granted I could
be wrong, certain student groups
are allowed to pick up their tickets
early before the rest of the students
have a chance to pick up their
tickets.
I find this unfair because all
students should have an equal
opportunity to pick up their tickets.
I also find it absurd that students
should even be standing in line for
4 hours when we have classes to
attend. Basically it all boils down
to the fact that tickets should be
available to all students.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Students take easy way out of work
Dear Editor,
This letter is in response to the
editorial written in TEC entitled
"Some professors' attitudes discour-
age learning Turn the table. For
the past several years, students have
come to college (not necessarily
just this one) for one reason-to
have fun.
A larger number than most want
their grades handed to them on a
silver platter. They want handouts,
freebees and excuses instead of
results from hard honest work.
While this isn't Harvard, it is a
university level institution.
These professors are not
mechanics by day and instructors
by night-they are doctors in their
respective fields. This isn't anytown
community college. And believe
me, 1 have been to a community
college that had some excellent
teachers.
Students these days want things
the easy way.
"Just tell me exactly what's
going to be on the test 1 hear
them say.
How about coming to class on
time, being prepared, ready to learn,
listening to lectures, taking good
notes and STUDYING OUTSIDE OF
CLASS (yes, even if it means not
going to the Tech game).
Now I realize that in spite of all
this you will still have professors
who treat the course and those who
choose to take it like children.
But instead of writing a generic
article on a nameless, faceless pro-
fessor, why don't you go to the head
of the department with all the other
scorned students that obviously
don't fit my generic description of
some students today and demand
something be done about it? If that
doesn't work, work your way up
the chain-this is a state-funded
university.
The dean of the school must be
accountable to someone, possibly
you or your parents who pay North
Carolina state taxes each year. If
you're going to cry foul, that means
you're in the game. Play all four
quarters, not just one-half. No
results come of that.

U.S. medical schools are still
short of minority students, study says
(Knlght-Ridder Tribune) - There
still aren't enough African-Ameri-
cans, Hispanics or American Indi-
ans in United States medical
schools, and that shortage could
hurt the quality of the nation's
overall medical care, according to a
recent report from the Association
of American Medical Colleges.
Blacks, Hispanics and Indians
made up about 15 percent of medi-
cal school graduates in 1998, but
they account for more than 25
percent of the U.S. population,
according to an association report
titled Minority Graduates of U.S.
Medical Schools: Trends, 1950-98.
"The stark disparity between
the number of practicing minority
physicians and the increasingly
diverse U.S. population is becoming
more acute and presents unique
challenges for the future delivery of
quality health care said associa-
tion president Dr. Jordan J. Cohen.
The number of U.S. physicians
who are African-American, His-
panic or Indian is already too low
- about 6 percent - and the low
number of medical students from
the three groups won't help make
up the gap.
One minority group - Asians -
is over represented in medicine in
comparison with its percentage of
the general population. In 1998,
about 18 percent of doctors practic-
ing in the United States were Asian
or Asian-American while 4 percent
of the population was of Asian
origin. The number of Asian doc-
tors has increased rapidly in recent
decades. In 1950, only 1 percent of
U.S. doctors were Asian, according
to the association report.
Other findings include the fol-
lowing: Most minority physicians
practice in states with large minor-
ity populations such as California,
Texas and New York. Twelve of
the 125 U.S. medical schools have
graduated 30 percent of all minor-
ity physicians since 1950. Medical
schools at Howard University in
Washington; Meharry Medical Col-
lege in Nashville, Tenn and the
University of Illinois graduated the
most black physicians.
The most American Indian and
Alaska natives graduated from the
University of Oklahoma School of
Medicine. The University of Puerto
Rico schools of medicine at Ponce
and Caribe graduated the most
Hispanic physicians.
The University of Hawaii, the
University of Lorna Linda in South-
ern California and the University of
California at I.os Angeles graduated
the most Asians. Among medical
schools' teaching ranks, minority
representation has grown, but pro-
motion rates of minorities continue
to lag behind those of whites,
according to a second association
study published in the Journal of
the American Medical Association.
"The results highlight the need
for medical schools to examine the
reasons racialethnic disparities
in promotion exist in their institu-
tion according to the article, writ-
ten by Dr. 1)1 Fang, Or. Krnest Moy,
Lois Colburn and Jeanne Hurley.
The study looked at promotion
rates among medical school faculty
members who became assistant or
associate professors between 1980
and 1989.

Centre College president hosts "Save the Debate" rally
DANVILLE, Ky. (AP) - Centre
College plans a rally on Tuesday to
encourage Republicans to attend
a vice presidential debate slated
for October.
Centre College President John
Roush will host a "Save the Debate"
rally on campus at 11:20 a.m. EDT
in response to an announcement
last week by Republican presidential
nominee George W. Bush that he
might refuse to accept the debate.
The debate between Democratic
Vice President nominee Joseph
Lieberman and Republican Dick
Cheney at the college was slated
for Oct. 5.
The rally is set for the lawn of
Ihe Norton Center for the Arts on
Walnut Street in Danville.
Meanwhile, Democrat Al Gore's
campaign chairman sought to pro-
tect the Danville debate in a letter
to the Commission on Presidential
Debates. William Daley said the
central Kentucky community had
spent considerable time and raised
money to host the debate.
"While we support all of the
plans of all of the proposed com-
munities to host their debates, the
hardship on this small town will be
particularly great if the debate that
they are planning to host is canceled
as the Bush campaign has urged
Daley said in the letter, dated last
Priday but released Monday.
Daley said the Danville event
carried a symbolic significance by
giving small-town America a direct
role in the debates.
"Rural America deserves a
chance to participate in this great
quadrennial event Daley said.
Roush said the college has raised
$750,000 for the debate, all from
outside donors. Of that, $55(),(MX)
was paid to the Commission on
Presidential Debates. If the debate is
canceled, "we would try to .recover
some of that money appropriately
Roush said.
On Sept. .i, Bush proposed an
alternate schedule for the debates
and it eliminated the vice presiden-
tial debate at Centre scheduled for
Oct. 5.
Lieberman has confirmed that
he would be in Danville oh debate
night.
If weather does not permit the
rally to be outside it will be held in
the Norton Center lobby.
Year in and year out, employees at education and
research institutions have turned to TIAA-CREF.
And for good reasons.

managed funds

"I HAVENT FAILED, I'VE
FOUND 10,000 WAYS THAT
DON'T WORK
-THOMAS EDISON
THE EAST CAROLINIAN
HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday: Once you clear a few
hurdles, you'll be on your way. Use what
you're learning, plus what you already know,
to attain your goals.
ARIES
(MARCH 21-APRIL 19)
Something that you thought would work
could fall flat. Errands could take three times
longer than usual. Relax. Take it slow and
easy. Better late than never.
TAURUS
(APRIL 20-MAY 20)
You have some good people on your side.
A lot of temptations are out there, however.
Keep your eye on long-term goals and keep
your pockets buttoned.
GEMINI
(MAY 21-JUNE 21)
Changes are underway, and some are big.
You probably have to explain what's going
on, and that may not be easy. Even if this
takes a while, you're doing fine.
CANCER
(JUNE 22-JULY 22)
Travel is not a good idea. You may even
have trouble making a long-distance connec-
tion. Packages in the mail could be delayed,
too. Stay close to home.
LEO
(JULY23-AUC. 22)
A supposed done deal could fall apart.
Money you thought was in the bank may
have been gobbled up by finance charges.
Go over notes and check your resources.
VIRGO
(AUG. 23-SEPT. 22)
If your partner is nuts and your boss is
off base, guess what? You're right, but don't
make a big deal of it. If you're nice instead,
they'll all realize how much they need you.
LIBRA
(SEPT. 23-OCT. 22)
A struggle's still going on between the
way you want things to be and the way they
are. You don't have to be inhibited by the
way others think things should be, but take
gravity into effect.
SCORPIO
(OCT. 23-NOV. 21)
If you're having trouble reaching an
agreement, an arbitrator could help. You
and your adversary may be too emotionally
involved to be objective. A Cancer is ideal.
SAGITTARIUS
(NOV. 22-DEC. 21)
There's enough controversy to make the
day interesting. Although you're right in the
middle of the action, you may want to keep
a low profile. Let others do the talking, and
you'll appear wise.
CAPRICORN
(DEC.22-JAN. 19)
Confusion reigns again. Even if you're the
boss, you may find it difficult to keep track of
changes. You may need a score card to tell
the good guys from the bad, too.
AQUARIUS
(JAN. 20-FEB. 18)
The chances of misunderstandings or
errors concerning money are high. Count
your change and read the fine print before
you sign any contracts. Spending a little
extra time now could be a valuable invest-
ment.
PISCES
(FEB. 19-MARCH20)
You'll find expressing your thoughts and
feelings is easier. Don't let others intimidate
you, especially if you don't agree. Your point
of view is just as important. Listen, too, and
you'll have another advantage.

TEC sits down to find out more
about the Olympic gold medalist
Maura Buck
FEATURES EDITOR
Bridget Hemenway
ASSISTANT FEATURES EDITOR
Mitch Gaylord, the first male to ever score a perfect 10 at the Olympic
names in gymnastics, sat down to speak with us about life, motivation and
his many accomplishments. At 23, he won a gold medal at the Los Angelos
Olympics which led to a starring role in the film American Anthem and a
stunt double role as "Robin" in Batman Forever. He serves on the President's
Council for Physical Fitness and now travels across the country delivering
motivational speeches.
TEC: When did you start training heavily?
GAYLORD: I would say when I hit college. I see a lot of people that
put their kids in training programs at 5 or 6 years old for the Olympics
and that's not the way to go.
TEC: How old were you when you decided to go to the Olympics?
GAYLORD: Well, the dream was there when 1 was 12 but when I
actually thought it was a possibility was when 1 was a senior in high
school. I competed nationally for the first time and saw the rest of the
country in my age group and realized that this was the group that was
moving up for the Olympics that I would be in. And, of course, I blew
every routine and came in like 16th; but the following year I beat all of
them. That's when 1 really started to train and I realized that I had talent
and I had to put the talent to use.
TEC: What was a training routine like?
GAYLORD: This was the last 2 or 3 years, intense training. 1 would
practice and hour-and-a-half in the morning, go to classes and then the
afternoon work out was four hours, study, eat dinner and then go to a
midnight strength rally which was about IS minutes and that was it for six
days a week. Then 1 actually left UCIA for a six month period of time to
train with Kurt Thomas and then returned to school.
TEC: What did you get your degree in?
GAYLORD: I didn't get my degree, I actually left. The timing was
one year left of school and we won a gold medal so that meant travel
around the country, endorse products. You know it's like a whole world
opened up to me. I was studying history and then after that year I thought
that's not what I need to be doing. Then I did a movie and it took me
in a whole different direction.
1 tried to go back, though, I did and I think it lasted maybe a week.
I thought too late! I've already seen the world. Here's where all the
opportunities are and here's what I used to do and it didn't make any
sense. I have no regrets. I have nothing against education, it just wasn't
right for me.
TEC: Who would you regard as a specific individual in your life who
has helped you become who you are today?
GAYLORD: There's so many people. It's hard to pinpoint one. I have
several inspirational figures in my life, people that didn't even know it at
the time or didn't even know me. Kurt Thomas was the gymnast that I really
looked up to, who 1 trained with for six months and continued to train
with him once and a while after that, once I got back to UCLA. My brother
who became my coach for the last year-and-a-half, towards the Olympics. 1
couldn't have done it without him and various other people.
TEC: While competing in the Olympics, was it accessible to meet
other Olympians from other countries and carry on a conversation
with them?
GAYLORD: Definitely. English is a common bond. Before we get
to the Olympics, you are traveling for four years prior to that and we
usually have dual meets prior to that where it's just your country against
their country and that's when you get to know them as people, and
you stay there for a week and travel to where they trained and where
they sleep. It's one of the best experiences. Those are friendships that
you will take on forever.

TEC: As a 23-year-old Olympian representing your country, are there pressures
that are unbearable?
GAYLORD: (laugh) Well the good news was that we weren't expected to win so we
didn't have that pressure on us. We didn't have expectations to live up to other than the
ones that we put on ourselves which was in all honesty to win a bronze medal. That's
what we thought we could do. After the first day, we realized that that wasn't the case,
we definitely had a shot and that's when the pressure set in.

Writer Reading Series returns
Morgan to give
reading on campus
Bridget Hemenway
ASSISTANT FEATURES EDITOR
The Writers Reading Series of Eastern NC is
kicking off the 2000-01 school year in a big way.
Since 1995 they have been bringing influential
contemporary writers from all walks of life to the
campus of ECU. This year is no exception.
The series begins Thursday, Sept. 14 with New
York Times bestseller Robert Morgan. Morgan,
a poet and novelist, has published nine books
of poetry and his novel, The Trust Pleasure, was
named a Publishers Weekly Best Book of the Year.
He has won numerous awards, including four
NEA Fellowships and the North Carolina Award
for Literature. His most recent novel. Gap Creek,
is even on Oprah's Book Club list.
Founded by Professor Julie Fay, the Writers
Reading Series provides an enriching opportunity
for writers to meet their readers and develop
new ones as they give a public reading, sign
books and attend a public reception in their
honor.
Randall Martoccia, English department
lecturer and one of the series organizers explained
the direction behind the series.
"Our mission is to invite six or more high
quality writers to eastern North Carolina each
year to allow readers and emerging writers in an
underserved community to appreciate and better
understand contemporary lit by allowing
them to meet and hear writers in person
Martoccia said. "This in turn can instill a
respect for the craft "
Angel Savage, department of English
administrative supervisor and committee
member for the Writers Reading Series said
that the program serves the community as
well as students.
"I believe it has not only benefited the
school but the community at large as a
grassroots and developmental program
Savage said. "It has been a very effective
multi-cultural organization. It has brought
in people who would normally have not had
the opportunity to experience meeting a
published author
Martoccia encourages students to become
interested in the literary community.
"People interested in writing should hear
the writers speak as a tool to motivate and
inspire Martoccia said. "Everyone needs to
come be a part of the literary community. If
not to trade ideas and ambitions then just to

Personalized frames made easy
WHAT YOU'LL NEED:
?plastic frames (available at
any craft store)
?regular household items
(shells, paper clips, broken glass,
candles, etc.)
?hot glue gun with glue sticks
?photographs
First, take plastic frame and
organize photo(s) in the
order you would like them to
appear. Now tape them in place
and put backing on frame.
Gather some ordinary household
materials and get creative!
The key here is to set a
theme for the frame and
find materials appropriate for
that theme. If you are displaying pictures from the beach, use sea shells to decorate the border If you
are celebrating a birthday, use some candles to place around the photo. If they are school pictures get
some pencils and erasers and glue them on. If you are making it for someone else, take an interest of
theirs and make that the theme. For example, if your boyfriend is obsessed with cars, buy some micro
maenmes and glue them around a romantic photo of the two of you-he'll love it! If you are makinq
the frame for a s.ster who loves to steal your clothes, grab some Barbie clothes and glue them on
a photo of the two of you. The possibilities are endless! Personalized frames make a great gift, are
cheap and actually fun to make.

much from them and you know In what I want to he as a father for them

The 2000 Summer Olympics opening
ceremonies will be held tomorrow night in
Sydney, Australia.
The event kicks off 17 days of competi-
tion in 28 sports.

OLYMPIC SOCCER GETS
HEAD START
While the games will not officially begin
until Friday, soccer has begun early. Wednes-
day, the U.S. Men's team tied heavily
favored the Czech Republic squad 2-2.
The Czechs got an early goal by Marek
jankulovski in the 28th minute. The Amer-
icans responded with two goals by Chris
Albright and josh Wolff.
Up 2-1 at halftime, the Americans lost
momentum down the stretch. The Czech
Republic's Lukas Dosek scored on a penalty
kick to tie the game in the second half.
MASON NAMED PLAYER
OF THE WEEK
ECU volleyball mainstay, LuCinda Mason
received the CAA Player of the Week Award
last week for her performance in the Hamp-
ton Inn Jayhawk Classic.
Mason, a senior, collected 51 kills, 40
digs and 21 blocks in the Pirates four
matches in the tournament.
She currently leads the Pirates in kills with
97.
MULLIN WAIVED
BY INDIANA
Five-time All-Star, Chris Mullin was
waived by the Indiana Pacers. The 37-year-
old forward joined the Pacers in 1997.
In three season with the team, Mullin
averaged 9.4 points. He leaves the Pacers
with the records for three-point percentage
(.441) and free throw percentage (.912)
Mullin has played 15 seasons in the NBA
after being drafted by the Golden State War-
riors out of St. John's.
Mullin won two Olympic Gold medals in
1984 and with the Dream Team in 1992.
GRIFFEY OUT ONE WEEK
Ken Griffey jrs frustrating season just got
worse. The oft-criticized Reds slugger, will
be out 5-7 days with a sprained hamstring.
Griffey suffered the injury in Tuesday's 7-6
win over Chicago.
Griffey has struggled in his first season
with Cincinnati. He has hit 39 home runs
and is currently batting .269.
Pirates look for
a repeat of history
Stephen Schramm
SPORTS EDITOR
Last season, Tulane
Head Coach Chris Scelfo
brought a Tulane team to
Greenville that thrived on
a vertical passing attack,
a team that was breaking
in a new quarterback and
timed its visit directly after
the Pirates' first loss.
This year, he brings a
Tulane team to Greenville
that thrives on a vertical
passing attack, with a few
tweaks, that is breaking
in a new quarterback and
doing it all directly after
the Pirates' first loss.
last year ECU won
52-7. This year the Pirates
hope for a similar result in
their C-USA opener.
"We want to come out
just like we did last year
said quarterback David
Garrard. "We're going to
try to give it to them as
many times as we can.
Hopefully they'll bend
towards the end and we
can really start to let loose
on them
While the 52 point
outburst of last season was
a showcase for the offense,
it overshadowed a strong
defensive showing. Tliiane
came into Greenville with
a high-powered passing
game that garnered much
attention from the ECU
coaches.
The Pirate defense
held the Green Wave to
20-for-35 passing for 150
yards.

Virginia Tech offense of
last week's loss. This
week they face an

offense, (photo by Ryan

"They're going to
throw the ball all over the
park said Head Coach
Steve Logan. "They're
going to come out throw-
ing, go home throwing,
that's what they do. So
we've got to go defend
it
This season, Scelfo and
the Green Wave bring a
slightly different offensive
scheme.
"They've got a little
more conventional stuff
in their offense Logan
said. "They've added a
tight end from time to
time, two backs from
time to time. Last year
they were almost exclu-
sively four or five wideout.
They've constricted their
offense some
In addition to the dif-
ferences in the passing
game, Tulane also looks to
run the ball more.
Tailback Mewelde
Moore nished for 82 yards
on 16 carries in the Green
Wave's season opener
against Ole Miss.
"Tulane rushes more
this year than they have
in the past couple years
said linebacker Pernell
Griffin. "So it will be on
the front seven to hope-
fully stop the running
game and help stop their
passing
At the helm of their
offense last season was Pat-
rick Ramsey.
The junior
entered the
season as
one of the
more prom-
ising signal
callers in the
conference.
In their loss
to Ole Miss,
Ramsey went down and
is questionable for Satur-
day's game.
In his place will be true
freshman J.P. I.osman.
"It doesn't matter to
me Logan said. "The
guy they've got coming in
is just as capable. We've
just got to worry about
Tulane
For the Pirate offense,
the worry will be the
dangerous Green, Wave
defense.
"They gamble quite a
bit, as far as putting eight,
nine men up on the line of
scrimmage Logan said.
"They've been very effec-
tive with it. If they guess
right, they can make you
look bad. We've got a do
a good job at the line of

Stephen Schramm IN MY OPINION
Goodbye Knight, good riddance
Pirate Notes
Bobby Knight may very well break Dean Smith's
record for the most wins by a college basketball
coach. He will probably find a job at some school
that is willing to put up with his
childish behavior. Bobby, you've got a long way to go
He'll find an athletic director , , . . ? v , ,
that will take his bullying and to close to Dean Sm,th' YoU d
a school that will look past the belter keep that in mind,
physical and emotional abuse he Stephan Schramm
puts on every person in his pro- SPORTS EDITOR
gram and revere him as merely a
coach that wins.
Despite his antics,
he will probably catch
Smith. Knight sits 116
wins behind the former
North Carolina coach
and needs about six
good seasons to equal
Smith's 879 victories.
Tuesday he baited
ESPN's Jeremy Schaap,
son of respected sports-
writer Dick Schaap, by
saying, "You got a long
way to go to become
as good as your dad,
you better keep that in
mind
Bobby, you've got
a long way to go to be
close to Dean Smith.
You'd better keep that
in mind.
If Knight does
become the winningest
coach in college basket-
ball, he will do it with a
tremendous shadow.
In his 32 seasons on
the bench in Chapel
Hill, Smith was a force
of change in the com-
munity. He fought for
integrating the team,
the university and the
town. He ran a clean
program, genuinely
cared about the welfare of his players, past and present,
and oh yeah, he won too. He did it all and kept an
air of humble respectability about his program and
his life.
His modesty was so strong that in the early 80s he
bristled at the idea of naming the new basketball arena
after him. Eventually he relented.
When he retired in 1997, Smith left the program
in good shape as well as the school and the town
better off.
After 29 seasons in Bloomington, what is Knight's
Bobby Knight was fired by Indiana University Sunday for violating
the University's "zero-tolerance" policy. (AP Photo)
legacy? Sure there are three championship banners,
and countless donations he made to the school.
But along with the accomplishments comes a
multitude of baggage.
There is too much foot-
age of chairs being thrown,
referees and reporters being
chastised and players being
kicked, head butted and
choked. There are too many
stories of students being
grabbed and lectured and
IU officials being
verbally abused,
not to mention
secretaries dodg-
ing flower pots.
Woody Hayes
was the highly
successful head
coach of the
Ohio State foot-
ball team for
decades. For all
the titles he won,
what most
people remem-
ber him for is
the night in 1979
when he threw a
punch at a Clem-
son player in
the closing min-
utes of a Buckeye
loss in the Gator
Bowl.
Hayes was
fired the next
day and never
coached again.
Now Knight
joins Hayes on
the list of
coaches who
could not con-
trol their demons.
One more
thought. Isn't it
ironic that Knight's final action as head coach at
IU ends with him lecturing a student on politeness
and respect.
This from a man who once allegedly used a
soiled piece of toilet paper to inspire his team?
For all intents and purposes, Knight was a
hypocrite. He demanded more from those around
him than he did from himself.
Maybe, if Knight had followed the rules he set
forth to IU freshman Kent Harvey last week, he
would still be employed.
EXTRA DOWN
Both ECU and Tulane have had plenty of time
to get ready for each other.
The Green Wave last played on Sept 2nd in a
49-20 loss to Ole Miss in Oxford, Miss. Meanwhile,
the Pirates are coming off of a 45-28 toss to Vir-
ginia Tech last Thursday.
"Whenever you have a couple of extra days,
your chances of winning greatly improve said
ECU quarterback David Garrard. "You get some
reps under your belt and get some of the soreness
out from last week's game and concentrate on the
next game
With a full two weeks to prepare for the Pirates,
players and coaches are expecting a rested and
ready Tulane squad.
"I'm sure they're going to have some trick
plays, some different things in their defense Gar-
rard said. "I'm not sure how much they can do to
us. If they blitz, they Witt. If they don't, they don't.
There aren't too many things unless they come out
with a whole new defense
THE RAMSEY FACTOR
While Tulane may be without their veteran
starting quarterback, Patrick Ramsey, the ECU
coaching staff is not concerned.
"Ifs a non-event to us which quarterback
plays said ECU Head Coach Steve Logan. "We've
got our scheme. We're going to run our scheme
against their schemes and see how we hold up
DISTANT MEMORIES
With Shaun King leading the Buccaneers in the
NFL and Tommy Bowden roaming the sidelines at
Clemson, the 12-0 season of 1998 is now a distant
memory.
Two years removed from the perfect season,
Tulane Is a program in a rebuilding phase. Since
their win in the 1998 Liberty Bowl, the Green
Wave has gone 3-9.

Knight set to move, still wants to coach
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. (AP)-The General has no intention of just
fading away.
Bob Knight, fired after 29 years at Indiana, says he will coach again,
and hell do It the way he always has-his way.
"I've always felt I've got to be me, I can't be something that someone's
trying to construct he said Tuesday night in a live, sometimes
contentious Interview on ESPN.
"I try to be fair, try to be honest. My philosophy and approach to
things is Just different than some people and situations Knight said.
Ousted for a pattern of "unacceptable" behavior that violated a
"zero-tolerance" behavior policy, Knight admitted he was surprised by
the school's decision. But he said perhaps it was time to move on anyway
and that he still wants to coach "in the worst way
"I thought I'd stay here till I was done coaching Knight said. "I
haven't retired. I'm an unemployed teacher right now, and I'm looking
for a place to teach. There are too many things that I have yet to explore
about the game of basketball
Knight said he thought about leaving Indiana at times, but his love
of the basketball team was too strong. He had wanted the Hoosiers, who
haven't advanced past the second round of the NCAA tournament since
1994, to become a powerhouse again.
"I kind of hung on to that thought for several years now, four or five
years, and probably should've gone somewhere else the 59-year-old Hall
of Fame coach said, "And there would be somebody that was a better fit
for this administration and these people than I am. And there's a place for
me where there's a better fit for me as a basketball coach
Knight repeated that he did nothing wrong when he grabbed freshman
Kent Harvey by the arm last week to lecture him about manners after the
student said, "Hey, what's up. Knight?"
The coach also disputed some of the other reasons University President
Myles Brand cited in firing him.
Brand said Knight violated a zero-tolerance policy that had been
in place since May. But Knight said he was never told exactly what
"zero-tolerance" meant, a claim University officials denied.
Knight said one episode cited by Brand, verbal abuse of a University
lawyer, occurred during a meeting about the $30,000 fine levied against
him by Brand in May. But Knight said he never used profanity and
didn't raise his voice.
After the ESPN interview, university officials said they stood by
Brand's earlier statements.
"I certainly think he did have a chance. In fact, his job was saved by
this administration in May and they gave him another chance, a new
lease on life said Stephen Backer, a school trustee. "It appears, from his
own interview, that he was angry and resentful, and instead of taking
advantage of the opportunity, he failed to do so

TAMPA, Fla. (AP)-Suspended
Yankees star Darryl Strawberry was
sentenced to two years' house arrest
Tuesday after admitting he violated
probation by driving under the
Influence of medication and by
leaving the scene of an accident.
Strawberry, who is fighting
the spread of colon cancer, apolo-
gized during a brief hearing before
Judge Florence Foster for causing a
Monday morning traffic accident.
He said he blacked out from his
medication while heading to a
meeting with his probation officer.
"I used the wrong judgment
taking medication because 1 didn't
feel well he told the court. "I just
blacked out. I didn't know if I hurt
anybody. I feel really bad about
that
Strawberry was released from
jail Tuesday, slipping out a side
door to avoid crowds.
Foster was the judge who placed

Strawberry gets house arrest
Voters OK Lambeau Field tax plan
on probation last year in a drug
and solicitation case. Prosecutors
requested house arrest, although
Strawberry could have been sent
to prison.
Assistant State Attorney Robin
Fuson said that Strawberry will
still have to face the misdemeanor
charges from Monday's accident?
driving under the influence and
leaving the scene of the acci-
dent?as separate crimes that could
bring additional punishment.
House arrest means the 38-year-
old outfielder leave home only to
go to a doctor's office or for work.
Should he attempt to rejoin a major
league baseball team, he would
need court permission, Fuson said.
"There's a lot going on there
Yankees manager Joe Torre said
before Tuesday night's game against
Toronto. "You have to wonder how
he's going to make a living
Because of his season-long sus-
pension, Strawberry is not drawing
a salary from the Yankees.
Outside court, Strawberry's wife,
Charisse, said her husband is sorry
about what happened, and was
relieved to know the woman whose
car he hit wasn't injured.
"I just hope we'll recover from
this she said, as tears rolled from
behind her sunglasses.
She said her husband, who had
surgery last month, is in a lot of
pain because of the cancer and
having a kidney removed. He also
has some mental difficulties, she
said, but did not elaborate.
"We still have to live every
day. He still has to wake up every
morning and look in the mirror
and say, I'm going through this
she said.
Strawberry, who has battled
drug and alcohol abuse for years, is
not permitted to leave home even
for an activity as mundane as going
to the movies or to his children's
school.

GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP)-Voters approved a half-
percent sales tax on Tuesday night to help the Green
Bay Packers renovate lambeau Field, clearing the way
for the team to start construction in January.
fn a record turnout, 48,788 voters, or 53 percent,
supported the half-percent sales tax in Brown
County, according to unofficial final results. There
were 42,580 votes against it.
The county will start collecting the tax Nov. 1,
Packers President Bob Harlan said.
"We are going to have the finest stadium in the
NFL Harlan said at the Stadium View Sports Bar
and Grill in Green Bay, where 400 team supporters
gathered Tuesday night.
"America's team still resides in Green Bay,
Wisconsin
Long before the final votes were counted, a cheer
went up at the Stadium View Sports Bar when WBAY
televised its exit poll, which projected the sales
tax would pass.
"We have Vince Lombard! looking over us
said Larry Primeau, known as "Packalope" for the
antler-adorned helmet he wears.
Voters also decided whether money generated by
the tax in excess of that needed for the renovation
should go toward county services. The unofficial
final tally had 50,317, or 55 percent, votes against
that idea, and 40,714 for it.
By passing the first question and rejecting the
second, voters decided the additional tax revenue
will be used to retire the Lambeau Field debt years
earlier.
The sales-tax vote had been projected as a close
one, pitting voters' love of the Packers against their
pocketbooks.
About 57 percent of the county's more than
160,000 eligible voters went to the polls Tuesday for
the sales-tax issue. Tuesday's turnout was a far cry from
predictions of 80 percent, but good enough to beat a
previous September primary record of 23 percent.
Tom Tomashek of Ashwaubenon said he sup-
ported the tax because he wants his children and
grandchildren to watch the Packers play at lambeau
Field.
"Truthfully, without the Packers, this would be like
a ghost town he said. "You might as well board up
all the hotel rooms
The Packers announced the $295 million renova-
tion in January, saying it would expand the 43-year-old
stadium's capacity to 71,100 seats by adding 0,00O
more, modernize the stadium with more bathrooms
and concessions stands and add a mall-like atrium for
the Packers Hall of Fame, Packer Pro Shop, stadium
club and other amenities.

Locals have love, hate for Spurrier
JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (AP)-
Steve Spurrier is popular in his
hometown. Some people really like
him.
Others really like to hate him-
especially when he brings his Flor-
ida Gators to Tennessee on Satur-
day.
"A lot of Tennessee people don't
like him a lot because he's won
seven out of 10, and you just don't
like people who beat you all the
time said Spurrier's older brother,
Graham, who still lives in Johnson
City. f Then a lot of people up here
pull for him, except for that one
game
Graham has gotten used to the
stares he gets driving around town
with his "Gator Man" license plate.
He just smiles.
And why not? Florida has only
lost three times to Tennessee since
his little brother became coach 10
years ago, "so there's not a whole
lot they can say
Steve Spurrier's visits to Neyland
Stadium are nothing new. In fact,
one game he remembers most was
when he was the coach at Duke
before he took the helm at Florida.
"I think the big special feeling I
had was 1982 to tell you the truth,
first time I ever had a chance to
go in there and coach he said.
"That was a memorable game for
me and all the Itookies when we
had a monumental upset I guess
you'd say, the 25-24 game. But its
always a little bit special going back
to your home state
The Spurrier family moved to
the mountains of upper East Ten-
nessee from Florida when Steve
was 12. Not long after, he starting
making a name tor himself on the
football and baseball fields and the
basketball court. He is by far the
best-known athlete to hail from
Johnson City.
"I could tell when he was young
that he was going to be something
special Graham said. "He wasn't
always the quickest or strongest
but he just usually finds a way to
win
The field in the town's stadium
where his alma mater, Science Hill
High School, plays football was
officially named Steve Spurrier Field
several years ago.
A nearly life-size photo of a
young Spurrier posing with his arm
ready to throw the football dwarfs
other pictures, retired jerseys and
plaques lining the wall outside the
Science Hill gym.
Next to the picture is a list of
his athletic accomplishments from
1962-76 including: All-State in
football, basketball and baseball;
1966 Heisman Trophy winner at
Florida and quarterback for the
San Francisco 49ers and Tampa Bay
Buccaneers.
It does not include his current
coaching status.
"He is probably the most hated
coach that came from Johnson
City said retired postmaster Fred
l.ockett, cracking a smile. "Steve
has a lot of friends, (but) when it
comes to football everybody boos
him
It seems many people are proud
of Spurrier's success-except when it
comes at the Volunteers' expense.
"They're not proud of him the
day he does that says Washington
County Sheriff Fred Phillips. "He
keeps Tennessee on its toes
Others don't have a soft spot
for him at all.
"I don't like him. I kind of look
at him as a traitor. If he was coach-
ing Tennessee I might feel a little
different says Phil Vittetoe, owner
of a local trophy shop.
The coach's brother says most
people who think they don't like
him change their minds after meet-
ing him.
One particular group of friends
finally met Spurrier when he visited
Johnson City.
"He sat with them a couple of
hours and shot the bull and talked
and he answered everything. They
couldn't believe what a nice guy he
was. Once you really meet him, he's
just like everyone else Graham
said.
Any animosity might have been
avoided had Spurrier become a
Volunteer.
When Spurrier was a high school
senior in 1962, Tennessee employed
the single wing offense that relied
